Well I can't even get it to work in IE where ActiveX is native... :'( Really these webpages should give up activeX in favor of Flash or better content that plays on all browsers. Especially if it's an Esperanto site...

Talking Pie:Personally, I would suggest trying whatever you can find. Sometimes I try learning things (Esperanto stuff, songs on guitar, anything), and if I can't do something, I come back to it later and suddenly realise "oh, I get that now", and it's easier to learn what I previously was stuck on.

If you're lucky enough to find a copy of the Fundamento in your library, definitely read that. If not, read one of the versions online (I'm sure someone here will have a link).

To anyone who's any good at Esperanto; I just had a terrible time attempting to translate my post, and I feel that it was still fraught with mistakes. Did it make any sense at all?

There were mistakes and some things that were too literally translated, and thus didn't make that much sense in Esperanto. But on the whole, I could tell what you were trying to say. Let me know if you want me to go through and correct it.
